Let’s go step by step to solve this task.
The worksheet says:
“Color any shape which has an adjective in it yellow or purple. Color the other shapes any color you like.”
So, we need to:
1. Look at each shape (flower petal, leaf, bee, etc.) that contains a word.
2. Decide if that word is an
adjective — a word that describes a noun (like “pretty”, “fun”, “yellow”, etc.).
3. If it’s an adjective → color it
yellow or purple.
4. If it’s NOT an adjective → you can color it any color you want.
Now let’s go through each word and decide if it’s an adjective:
-
spring → Can be a noun (season) or verb (to jump). Not typically an adjective here →
✘ not adjective
-
pretty → Describes something nice-looking →
✔ adjective
-
fun → Describes something enjoyable →
✔ adjective
-
muddy → Describes something covered in mud →
✔ adjective
-
colorful → Describes something with many colors →
✔ adjective
-
yellow → Describes a color →
✔ adjective
-
calm → Describes a peaceful state →
✔ adjective
-
sunny → Describes weather with sun →
✔ adjective
-
green → Describes a color →
✔ adjective
-
whirly → Describes spinning motion →
✔ adjective (less common, but still descriptive)
-
chirpy → Describes a cheerful sound or mood →
✔ adjective
-
blossoms → Noun (flowers) →
✘ not adjective
-
grow → Verb →
✘ not adjective
-
leaves → Noun →
✘ not adjective
-
spring (again) → Same as above →
✘ not adjective
-
bees → Noun →
✘ not adjective
-
buzz → Verb or noun →
✘ not adjective
-
fuzzy → Describes texture →
✔ adjective
-
daisy → Noun (a flower) →
✘ not adjective
-
bee → Noun →
✘ not adjective
Also, the bee itself doesn’t have a word inside it — so no need to color based on that.
So, the shapes with adjectives are those containing:
→ pretty, fun, muddy, colorful, yellow, calm, sunny, green, whirly, chirpy, fuzzy
All of these should be colored
yellow or purple.
The rest (spring, blossoms, grow, leaves, spring again, bees, buzz, daisy, bee) can be colored any color you like.
✔ Final Answer:
Color the shapes with the words: pretty, fun, muddy, colorful, yellow, calm, sunny, green, whirly, chirpy, and fuzzy — use yellow or purple. All other shapes can be any color you choose.
